I say a neutrino does not have a rest mass. It is a photon, like a very
high energy gamma ray photon. I have seen photos of a neutrino
collision in a neutrino trap. From the look of all the resulting
ionization tracks, it must have had a lot more energy than 40 ev. I say
the energy of neutrinos is in the range of 300 mev!

According to special relativity, anything with a positive rest mass
travels slower than the speed of light. Neutrinos have been measured
with a positive rest mass, of around 40ev for the electron neutrino
IIRC, and higher values for the muon and tauon neutrinos.
I have never heard of either tardyon or luxon before either, but have
heard of tachyon, or faster than light particle. Clearly tardyon is
therefore slower than light, and luxon is at light speed.
Luxons therefore have zero rest mass, and tachyons have imaginary (ie
proportional to sqrt(-1)) rest mass.
Cheers
